On October 16, two months after the official release of "The Aviator". Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoAt the Sheraton Hotel in Beiping, "The Aviator" held a press conference for the theme song of the movie.

Ten years later, the movie theme song press conference is the standard for movie promotion, and most movies will do it. However, in 2004, it was the first time in history, and the media was very curious about it, and more than 100 reporters came to the scene. They are located behind the guest seats in the first row, making it easy to take pictures.

Behind the reporter were hundreds of viewers, most of whom were fans of Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu. After knowing that the idol was going to have a development conference, they flocked to the hall, and the hall of nearly a thousand people was full.

Although there was a big difference in age among these people, there were aunties in their fifties and sixties, and there were also students in their fifteen or fifteen years, but they all came for their idols, and they were very harmonious with each other, and they talked about the theme song in a whisper.

"Who do you say will sing the theme song? I think it's probably Jielun, he has a very good relationship with Zhang Ran, and it's the most appropriate thing to invite him to sing!"

"I also think it might be Jay Chou. In such a big battle, the one who sings must be a big name! But I still hope that Zhang Ran sings by himself, his voice is very good, and his singing must be very good!"

"Yes, Zhang Ran's voice is very good, if only he could sing. ”

All kinds of speculation and discussion filled the crowd, and the whole scene seemed a little noisy, but the fans were excited and looking forward to the appearance of their idols.

At ten o'clock, the press conference officially began!

The lights in the lobby go out, the big screen lights up, and the trailer for The Aviator begins!

In the picture, teenagers Qiao Zhengfei and Liu Jiao are standing in the open space, looking up at the sky. A plane flew over their heads, Liu Jiao cheered, Qiao Zhengfei was quiet, but his expression was a little sad. The picture switches, and as an adult, Qiao Zhengfei looks up at the sky, with firmness in his sad eyes.

The subtitle appears on the screen: "Even if it's an unattainable dream!"

The continuous quick editing flashed, and Liu Jiao and Qiao Zhengfei's friends persuaded him not to dream unrealistically, and to be realistic. Immediately afterwards, there was a conflict between Liu Jiao and Qiao Zhengfei. The two quarreled, fought coldly, and eventually broke up.

The subtitle appears again: "Don't give up hope either!"

Screen switching. In the hospital, Liu Jiao persuaded the injured Qiao Zhengfei not to fly, it was too dangerous. Qiao Zhengfei smiled and said, "No matter what, I must fly!" As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at the sky: "Didn't you say that Dad was watching me from the sky!"

A quick cut of a group of Joe flying in the studio to make an airplane flashed, and then the footage appeared at the test flight site.

The plane was pushed out, and Qiao Zhengfei sat in the cockpit wearing a helmet. The plane slowly accelerated with a huge roar, and the speed of the plane became faster and faster, faster and faster!

The screen flashed, and the name of the movie was revealed - Aviator!

On December 16th, blood took off!

The lights in the hall lit up, and there was a round of applause.

The enthusiasm of the audience at the scene was ignited by the trailer, and the trailer of one minute and thirty seconds already made them feel their blood boiling, especially Zhang Ran's firm eyes driving the plane and preparing to take off, which directly taught them to feel numb.

To be honest, I like "Burst Drummer" more than "Time Soldier", and I'm looking forward to this movie so much!"

"Looking forward to it, Zhang Ran's performance is so good, he deserves to be the teacher of the acting department! If I was a few years younger, I would definitely have to take the Nortel performance department! If I could listen to Zhang Ran's classes every day, it would be really happy!"

"Jing Chu acted so well, she really looks more and more like an acting school, and I like her more and more!"

In the warm applause, the host Jin Wei walked on the stage, took the microphone and said: "Today is the theme song press conference of "Aviator", and the trailer of the movie was played just now. Now, everyone will use applause to welcome director Zhang Ran to appear!"

The whole hall suddenly applauded, overwhelming shouts, crazy screams, resounded in the sky, and fans greeted Zhang Ran with great enthusiasm.

Zhang Ran walked up from the backstage and appeared in everyone's sight, and the atmosphere of the scene was immediately pushed to the peak. Cheers, whistles, screams, all converged and deafening, and fans were expressing their love for their idols with their cheers and shouts.

"Zhang Ran, I love you. Zhang Ran!"

"Zhang Ran, Zhang Ran!"

"Zhang Ran, I will always support you!"

Waiting for Zhang Ran to walk to the center of the stage, Jin Wei smiled and nodded: "Hello, Zhang Ran, long time no see!"

Zhang Ran responded: "Hello, Jin Wei!" As he spoke, Zhang Ran greeted the audience: "Hello everyone, I'm Zhang Ran!"

There was another burst of cheers and screams from the audience.

After a few polite words, Jin Wei got to the point: "Today is the theme song press conference of the movie "Aviator", let's talk about this movie first. We all know it's a story about building airplanes, why did you make this story?"

Zhang Ran raised the microphone and thought about it, and said, "I am an idealist and like movies that give people hope. Each of us has had a dream, but slowly, losing our enthusiasm, abandoning our original beliefs, diluting our original dreams, and choosing reality. But I believe that dreams, like classics, will never fade because of time, but will become more precious. ”

Zhang Ran paused and continued: "A few years ago, I accidentally saw the cartoon "Fly", and I was very moved, so I decided to make this story into a movie at that time! This movie is about dreams, which may be a bit pretentious to say, but I still want to say, don't give up on your dreams easily. My teacher once said to me, don't give up on your dreams, although it may not necessarily bring wealth, but at least it will keep your soul from being lonely!"

Hearing Zhang Ran's words, the audience at the scene was silent, and many people were a little thoughtful.

Zhang Ran's words are very reasonable, and they speak to everyone's hearts. Everyone has had dreams, but most of them have been overwhelmed by reality and buried their dreams in the bottom of their hearts.

After letting Zhang Ran talk about his creative feelings, Jin Wei looked at the guests in the audience and said with a smile: "We invited a special guest today, let's invite him up with applause!"

Amid the warm applause, an old man with a wrinkled face and a very old look, wearing a blue tunic coat, walked up. The audience at the scene was a little surprised, the old man was dressed in a more rustic way, and he looked like an ordinary farmer.

Jin Wei pointed the microphone at the old man: "Please introduce yourself to everyone!"

The old man said loudly into the microphone: "My name is Cao Zhengshu, and I am a farmer in Wuquan Village, Yonghe Town, Xichuan'an County!"

Most of the media and the audience present were a little confused, but they didn't expect that this person who came up was really a farmer, what did an ordinary farmer do at the song press conference? Only a few reporters who had watched "The Aviator" had their eyes lit up, and their eyes were full of admiration when they looked at Zhang Ran.

Zhang Ran smiled and explained: "You may wonder why you invited Lao Cao to come? Lao Cao is a very key element of the movie. There is a plot in the movie, Qiao Zhengfei saw the news in the newspaper called Cao Zhengshu to build an airplane, which ignited his dream. The movie is fictional, but Cao Zhengshu is real. From 84 to the present, a full twenty years, Lao Cao built ten planes and wanted to fly into the sky, but all failed. Lao Cao's story has attracted people's attention, appeared on CCTV, was made into a documentary by British and South Korean television, and last year he also walked into Sichuan University to have a dialogue with Sichuan University students. Lao Cao is not a pilot, but he is a pilot, a real aviator! Today is the theme song press conference of the movie "The Aviator", so we invited this real aviator here!"

The audience suddenly realized and applauded. For ordinary people, airplanes are high-tech things and are out of reach, but an ordinary farmer has worked hard for twenty years, and in any case, it is worthy of respect.

Jin Wei smiled and asked, "Lao Cao, why do you want to build an airplane?"

Cao Zhengshu is just an ordinary farmer, and it is the first time for him to face such an audience, and he seems a little nervous: "When I was in my teens, I had a dream. In my dream, I was walking in a cabin, and the sounds and vibrations around me indicated that I was neither a boat nor a car. Looking out the window, you find yourself in the air, with wheat fields and villages below. Later, when I worked as a technician in an agricultural machinery maintenance station, I was thinking, although building an airplane is high-tech, but others can build it, why can't I build it?"

Under the auspices of Jin Wei, Cao Zhengshu talked about a lot of the difficulties and ridicule he encountered in the process of building airplanes, and also talked about his persistence in the past 20 years. He was just an ordinary farmer, he had never gone to school, and he couldn't say flowery rhetoric, but his persistence and quest over the past 20 years touched everyone present.

Jin Wei couldn't help but ask: "Have you ever thought about it, as an authentic farmer, is it worth it to build your own plane?"

Cao Zhengshu thought for a while and said, "I think everything should be tried to make the impossible possible, so I think it's worth it to build an airplane." ”

Jin Wei asked again: "You have failed ten times so far, do you think you can build an airplane?"

Cao Zhengshu said loudly: "I am a big boss, I don't know what the big truth is, building airplanes is my dream, and it is also my biggest hobby." If I can't fly into the sky, I'll keep making it, and I hope this dream can come true. ”

The audience applauded thunderously, although many people did not believe that he could fly into the sky, but everyone hoped that he could realize his dream and really fly into the sky.

Jin Wei asked with a smile: "Today is the theme song press conference of the movie "Aviator", do you know anything about Zhang Ran before?

Cao Zhengshu shook his head and said: "I didn't know before, I was busy building airplanes in my free time, and I rarely watched TV." But yesterday Zhang Ran invited me to watch "The Aviator", the movie is very good, especially when I saw that Qiao Zhengfei decided to build an airplane because he saw my news, I was really happy. After I go back, I will continue to build airplanes, and I believe that I can fly into the sky like Qiao Zhengfei!"

After a brief interview, Cao Zhengshu was invited to the guest seat to take his seat. When he left the stage, the audience stood up and saluted him with applause.

Jin Wei did not forget his responsibilities, led the topic to the theme of today's press conference, and asked with a smile: "Today is the theme song press conference of "Aviator", and everyone is particularly concerned about this song. Director Zhang, you are the lyricist and composer of the theme song "Dream Chasing Pure Heart", can you tell us why you wrote this song first?"

As soon as this sentence was blurted out, there was a commotion now: "I heard it right, the theme song was actually written by Zhang Ran himself?"

"It's worthy of being my idol, it's really proficient!"

"It turned out that the theme song was written by Zhang Ran himself, and it must have been sung by himself. Self-written, self-directed and self-acted, plus self-written and self-sung, wow, it's really amazing!"

"The movies have won the Golden Lion Award, and the songs must be very good, I can't wait to hear them right away!"

The eyes of countless media and audiences at the scene were focused on Zhang Ran's face, wanting to hear Zhang Ran talk about his views.

However, Zhang Ran didn't say much, just smiled slightly, and said: "There's really nothing to say, the name of the song is "Dream Chasing Pure Heart", which is a song about dreams." Let's listen to the song first, and then we'll talk about what we've heard!"

After speaking. The lights dimmed. (To be continued.) )
